MBA Alumni Perspective

“From intriguing lectures and challenging case studies, to the countless team-based projects with students from across the globe, the school’s focus on preparing students for success in the real world was evident. The strong foundation, touching on all aspects of business management, that was built during my two years in the MBA program continues to help me progress through the early part of my career. In my current role overseeing Investor Relations at a publicly traded company, I continuously find myself applying the vast set of skills developed through all of my truly remarkable experiences at the UB School of Management.”

Timothy Silverstein

Director of Investor Relations

“While the MBA program curriculum shaped my ability to think critically in the business context, the CRC proved invaluable to my professional development. Through the CRC’s many services, I was able to interface with alumni and employers through networking events and fairs, unearth job opportunities that aligned with my skills and interests, and eventually close the deal on a coveted full-time marketing position. Without proper coaching from the CRC’s dedicated and committed staff, I would have lacked the level of professional acumen necessary to properly market myself and capitalize on a winning career opportunity.”
